Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques in Monitoring Land Use Land Cover Change

This examination by utilizing GIS and Remote Sensing procedures to planning highlights of Al-Kutcity, Iraq from 2004 2014, in order classify developments that has occurred between these periods. The using satellite image (Quick bird satellite) with depending on remote detecting identify Land Use/Land Cover change which is definedas the amount distinct information current data can incite continuously touchable bits into basic strategies, including land spread use changes. process defining Changes related LULC properties called detection it’s referenced Geo-registered high resolution. It useful many applications such as identification changes, deforestation, urban extension, other cumulative changes through spatial historical analysis techniques. dependable method briefly acquisition (satellite resolution 0.60 m) geo-referenced GCPs produce a thematic map feature classified making statistical analyzing.ARC software help us make this easy entering two types data, first one second ground control points. study shows development built-up expansion however city, decreasing, due growth it. Finally, result decreasing waterbodies waste area noticed increasing land. These progressions are mainly happening uncontrolled growth.
